“…In stages of illness, this stage of the continuum parallels emergent illness , and, over time, chronic illness . Emergency care includes emergency medical services at the site of an emergency (physical or mental), stabilization on site, communications between providers at the site and providers in a hospital or other site, transportation to a hospital or other site, and immediate treatment at that site 4 . For nonemergency situations, primary care is often the first contact with the medical care delivery system.…”

Answers to unasked questions: Writing in the margins

This qualitative study is a secondary analysis of comments spontaneously provided by participants in a quantitative survey. Narrative comments were written by 25% (n = 205) of the adults with multiple sclerosis who responded to the survey. Forms of unsolicited written comments included responses to questions written in the margins of the questionnaires and narratives on blank booklet pages. The purpose of this study was to apprehend what participants were telling us, particularly in the responses that they had written in the margins. Qualitative methods were used to identify and explore major categories in the participants' comments. Those who wrote unsolicited comments perceived their economic resources as less adequate, were experiencing greater family and social demands related to their illness, and were more likely to live in a nonmetropolitan county than other respondents. Secondary analysis of this rich qualitative data enhances the depth of our understanding of the person's experience with chronic illness.
